April San has to prove he retains all his ability having raced just the once since winning on soft ground at Sedgefield in 2009 and it was also testing conditions that Katie's Jem scored in at Limerick in March. Allys Bubble and Lady Perspex were both placed on decent ground last time and Johnny Two Keys looks to have solid claims on his best form but the vote goes to LARKIN. He scored on a fast surface over C&D in April and a good effort off a higher mark at Limerick a fortnight ago suggests he's capable of going in again here.
